Description: As per normal, none of the videos featured have deaths or critical injuries.
0:24 To the DC driver who hit the VW Golf driver, I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart. I wonder how many of us who watch these videos have been waiting for the day when a break tester finally meets his match and ends up in the guard rail... Can I have a show of hands?
✋
That crazy bastard finally did it.. 🤣
DC driver is as big a dickhead as the GTi driver. Overtaking on the left, and then surprised when a car moves into his lane. Both drivers need a good hiding.
you sir are our MVP of the video 👏👏👏
@@fieldo85 I'm pretty sure the VW had this coming.
the complete lack of anticipation is incredible and the amount of people who seemingly just drive into a crash out of a sense of entitlement, because they are in the right, is absolutely crazy - I'd rather let it go than spend months waiting for a car repair. just dumb. kid on the scooter is so so lucky.
watched the kid on the scooter thing three times...three times I still cannot believe what I saw...looked just like a special effect
What's more dumb is the amount of people who cause the crashes, out of a sense of dumbfuckery, and still manage to be allowed to drive a car.
if those people realised how insurance actually works they would be more careful. There is no requirement for insurance companies to waive excess for not at fault drivers. Some insurance companies will also refuse insurance if you have too many not at fault crashes in a certain time. Then those people whould have to tell everyone when applying for insurance they have been refused causing their premium to skyrocket!
Spot on. No point being in the right, if you're dead... or your car is smashed.
I agree, and the lack of awareness. Like when Im on a roundabout with multiple lanes, I expect drivers will cut across and not understand the rules. You have to expect the worst. Same with people cutting across lanes of traffic waiting at the lights. Several of these crashes looked like distracted drivers looking at their phones.
19:52
"...make your dreams come true"
Crash-crumple-Ding dong!-shatter-Ding dong!-smash
"People make bad choices..."
"Please switch on your lights."
Pure poetry.
10:50 "it's all been recorded mate".. "GOOD" *immediately jumps in his car and does a runner*
You may want to be wary about informing PCP guy that you have a dashcam to prevent the mongoloid from attempting to rip it out!
He ran away because the dc driver was about to deck him
@Gringotts (yes I know this, was trying to make a funny).. then in that case he’s no better than a chihuahua acting tough from behind a gate, acting like a big man until old mate got out of his car haha
The Fairlane driver sounded drunk
That was a weird one. I don't think he needed to rear end him. I think he lost "being in the right" when he was blinding the junkie
20:01 the “turn on your headlights” absolutely sent me. That the last of your worried when you’re on your roof.
Also just before that :people make bad choices"
Where did it send you?
@@Taizunx Looking for you.
But honestly more people need that reminder. But not after they flipped the car
Says “lights” so probably referring to hazards
4:24 the audio matches so perfectly I literally thought Hamish was driving the van and Andy was in the car omg
Hahahaha I thought it this was the actual audio from the passengers
I'm still not convinced they weren't!
The lack of defensive driving always shocks me.
There is a lot of sentiment of 'oh he got what he deserved' or 'he was in the right' but I never quite understood that. Yes, driver A was in the wrong when they ran a stop sign and crashed into driver B. Driver B however could have completely avoided the situation if they were just a little more aware, there was heaps of time to avoid the incident and now driver B's car is all banged up.
In many cases by the cammers. I would have been on the brakes expecting the idiots to do what they did long before the footage started rolling.
Yeah, but some people just prefer to honk instead of actually swerve ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
A lot of people think that blame for a crash is like The Highlander; ‘there can be only one!’
could make a sandwich between the DC'er pressing the horn and applying the brakes in most of these
You have to wonder exactly what, if anything, was going through some people's heads during these incidents.
Especially some of the people sending these in.
@D G funny as F! 😂😂😂😂
Their mobile phones probably
I like to think its someone grill going through the mind of a biker
Some terrible driving and people obviously not paying attention.
13:25 I can't believe no one is commenting on this one. The sheer arrogance and collateral damage from this one pissed off driver is amazing!
And seconds later after pushing that white car and trying to keep going, he crashes himself and flips the car
i know right! two parked cars, two moving cars, pushes dude sideways for a block and then tries to run away only to hit a tree
Good chance they lost control of their car before or during the incident due to damage, or they're having some severe medical/mental episode
The cammer is also an ass. Looks like he brake checked after a sudden lane change, then almost crosses the center line to prevent the car behind him from passing him. Both need mental help.
I'd say stolen or driver high.
Old mate at 2:05 spent more time honking than they did just braking. What an easily avoidable accident.
Should attach the horn to the brakes. 😆
If you watch the GPS Speedo, it looks like he actually accelerated into it as well....
he spent exactly no time breaking from the speed readout, maybe after an easy insurance payout?
@@arcturus9026 yeah but insurance doesn't work that way - if they decide you could have avoided the accident they'll still flog you an excess
Slowing down and T boning them is the best way to go, their paying for damage or a new car, and they learn a lesson.
I’d love to watch a compilation video of everything that happens after these crashes. The conversations, the arguments, the blaming - GIVE IT TO ME
I second that, I always wanna see peoples reactions.
Absolutely Agree
Same 😂 Loved the one at 10/11 minutes.
25:00 hits home. A seizure on the way to work claimed the life of my wife, no one to blame (as far as we know). Treasure every moment with your loved ones, you never know when the knock on the door can come.
I'm sorry to hear that, condolences to your family.
Sorry to hear your loss and totally agree . Treasure every moment with your loved ones
Oh I am sorry
Shouldn’t be driving if known to have seizures
Oh this broke my heart. I'm so sorry, what an utterly life changing loss. If I may ask, how have things been for you since she passed?
14:24 props to whoever was driving for having the most IMMACULATE taste in music. The feels SLAPS
I was looking at the comments to see if anyone noticed/said anything about this lol 100% agree!
Hello fellow ONCE 🍭

@16:40 Never, ever cross the road because someone in a car is motioning for you to do so. Crossing the road is your responsibility, not theirs.
This and 3:15. Never stop and wave anybody through if there are other lanes, including cycle lanes. Notice how the other drivers in 3:15 carried on their merry way, after one of them probably contributed to the accident.
I know right? I'd get the ass whooping from me dad if I did that, not the driver!
looka bomba playing at 5:52 is so fitting for a presumably street racer losing control and spinning out into a barrier
I always find it interesting when cammers send in vids of themselves being entirely at fault, makes for a good laugh in the middle of all the destruction. Good vid.
If they send in such videos humbly, then I believe there is hope for those such drivers. Occasionally though, they send them in with hubris, and those ones make it into the April Fools compilation.
@@Banana_Split_Cream_Buns one of them is such a clip too, I think it's at 20:30. DC merges into another ute and does a runner for a minute
....or maybe their significant-other sends them in attempting to alter their driving-habits?
Like diving up the inside of a truck in bike lane perhaps? ua-cam.com/video/PXdkVl9jD1w/v-deo.html
@@Mr_Min sucks to be the Nissan Skyline R33 owner at 7:53 lol
Absolutely brutal compilation this one. Makes me concerned about who I share the roads with.
Lived in NZ for a bit. At the time the rate was as estimated "1 in 10 drivers were on meth". I now drive everywhere with that stat in mind. Drive like everyone is on drugs. I've avoided a couple potential incidents that way.
Half the problem evidenced by these videos is these dingleberries don't want to share the road with anyone
Yes it is… I could feel my blood pressure rising way too many times during this one….. they seriously do my head in, and it concerns me that these people are on the road with us….. just one of the reasons I drive the large 4WD I do….. incase one of the morons decide to do something stupid around me…. I want my passengers and me to be as safe as possible!
@@julieross1984 Up North is 9 in 10 drivers were on meth. The other 1 in 10 was making meth in the car while driving ;)
That’s it for me, I am staying off the roads this week.
Might I mention that 7:50 is completely the guy driving's fault?? (From the looks of it lmao) there's no second lane there, only a bike lane
Yes, but... when i went back, i could see the garbage truck had his right indicator on. Thinking I was having a stroke, I slowed it down to 0.5x speed and watched it again, turns out, the truck definitely had his right indicator on as the car was approaching, before it cancelled as the car approachednext to the truck, which had not indicated to turn left, so the car (which shouldnt have been in the bike lane, I admit) is not at fault, and the truckie is going to be either paying for damages or getting the sack.
I get that, but the accident wouldn't have happened at all if the car wasn't in the bike lane, and so it is the cars fault. The car still had a chance of getting hit even if the truck was turning right anyway, just because of how big it is, and so they should've waited behind like every other car would.
The only thing the truckie did wrong was not indicate to go left, I agree aswell lol, but even then that doesn't make them at fault.
@@ryanr1712 Single lane road. It doesn’t matter which way truckie was indicating, DC shouldn’t have been there whether he was indicating left, right, or upside down. DC would’ve paid for that for sure…
2:17 That cop didn't even slow down before running the red, I know they have right of way, but speeding through red lights in a city with tall buildings blocking the view...
Nearly happened to me a few weeks back, if it wasnt for ABS brakes i would have sent one of those shitty police vans into orbit.
They only have right of way when the are performing their actions safely. Blasting through a red like that will get them in a heap of trouble.
Unfortunately the other car driver is done for now... Failing to give way to an emergency vehicle with lights / sirens. (as silly as it is)
Priceless!
@@roadmonitoroz Nope.
They can argue that the police car did not slow down as they are required to do so when they go through red lights.
They must make sure it is safe to proceed before blasting through otherwise how can ONE give way when one does not even see them?
if these people spent as much time applying the brakes as they do blowing their horns, there wouldn't be half as many crashes
I always thought that...especially in those crazy russian car cam vids...have no problem pressing the hazard light...but somehow forget to use the brake pedal that's always used and much larger than the hazrd light button...I assumed it was for insurance purposes
They can do both at once and usually are. Sound travels faster than brakes bring a couple of tonnes to a halt.
My personal favorite is the ones who hit the horn during or after the crash as if it help. Like the guy who blew the horn at the biker flying at him. A+ Effort, much help.
@@MiklosKoncsek The hazard light thing had me puzzled for a bit until i discovered they come on automatically when the airbags go off.
@@peterlalor4608 and hard braking in some too, like if the abs engages the hazards flash or something
12:03 the sheer size of this unit prevented the airbag deploying. all the inertia went to his body
Absolutely beautiful comment, what a unit
He has massive boobies 😲
So many of these drivers need to hand in their licences for the safety of the rest of us
Mate, I think police statistics show that fair percentage of people driving don't even have a driver's licence.
Licences are for lawful and honest folk, some of the people here in these video's wouldn't know a licence for anything from the gun they keep at home to the one to drive their oversized status symbol wankmobile, and those are the ones who scream the loudest when they finally get caught.
That's if they have one! It's likely many think their international driver's licences are still valid!
@@gazzafloss Someone just made that exact comment on another Oz dashcam channel, he said you wouldn't believe the number of people police pull up for RBT etc who have *never* even held a licence...
@@artmallory970 mate of mine had a daughter in NSW cops, she said around 60%of drivers pulled for actual traffic breaches were unlicenced, either never had one or were suspended, go figure...
15:04 legend has it the shoes are still in orbit. Lucky dude though, another meter and he was toast.
Hopefully the near castration/broken pelvis teaches him a lesson about the meaning of lights.
The right one landed here just south of Adelaide ... flickin em off that fast does cause some injury though
By the looks of the reverse light turning on twice they are unable to do a runner.
15:07
In more serious incidents the feet stay in the shoes. Scary stuff.
@@BoomChing Good catch. I hope they got absolutely walloped by the law for that. It was dangerous driving and could have been fatal.
The amount of respect I have for the drivers who hop out of their car and ask if everyone is ok is insane
Why is doing this insane?
@@MegaPeedee oh, it’s just some people don’t do that. It proves that there are good people in this world 😊
I mean I'm pretty sure it's illegal to just drove off if you witness a car crash@@just__summer
Christ I feel like 80% of these are people distracted by their phones.
Without a doubt. Too many entitled degenerate shits on our roads. Also good to see you here jolly!
Na past a old guy last week reading the newspaper at the lights
It's true, most people in Melbourne I see doing dumb stuff on the roads are either messing with their phone or the tablet screen most newer cars have for audio & maps.
@@DrCoomer_1 yup, those things are bad for stupid people who can't just drive instead of messing with their technology
Oh, hello there Jolly 🤣
I’ve had to watch this in stages with how angry some of these videos have made me! There are some absolute entitled wankers and they not just ruin their day, but in most of these cases, the days of at least 2 other parties. The truck at 13.06 being the worst but damn, they were all rough.
Yep, I did the same, took me 3 breaks to watch it all.
Not as angry as some of the commentators here make me.
Well....cant expect mud from the standard truckie can you
ok snowflake edit: nevermind these drivers are literally braindead lmao,
Yeah whoever edits these thought "Fuck it, today... the gnarliest ones!"
0:00 I can't be the only one who rewinds almost every dash cam video so I can tell what's going on, because I miss a lot.
Yep. I watch on my laptop with my little finger on the < arrow to rewind, and my thumb on the spacebar to pause. They get used a LOT.
Hamish and Andy were pretty excited about that fender bender.
You have to wonder how these people made it this far through life until now
They're Darwin Award nominees, or natural selection, whichever comes first.
Especially the ones that seem to just blindly drive across junctions or crossroads, like the guy at 5:21
Luck & their parents/taxpayer...
@@chris746568462 it was a bold move. Wonder if it's paying off for him.. somehow...
@@metarugia3981 they're probably Darwin drivers too, literally every 2 minutes when driving I encounter a bad driver, it's quite a spectacle
17:48 when you see petrol under $2 a litre.
21:01 is a perfect example of how even someone expecting to look for an accident can get distracted....that one caught me off guard cause i was looking towards the right as i expect many others did
As a properly trained driver, the car on the side of the road was in my view, for a split second. This was only after I noticed the car in the lane, was at a complete stop. Then I watched the accident happen with more than enough time for the driver to stop.
As viewers of a crash compilation video, people are looking for the problems that exist all around. As a driver you should pay attention to where you are going, not the things on the side of the road. Also when watching a video, you don't see as much as when you're in the car.
I watch these videos as a driver first. When I don't notice the crash, which isn't very often, I then go back and look for what I missed. I do this to see if I could have avoided the accident and to possibly learn more about others driving habits. Unfortunately with the impatient people of today, an accident can come out of nowhere. Not this accident however, as it was easily avoidable.
@@northernsnow6982 ye I watch these videos trying to see if I can predict where an accident is going to occur before it starts. The colour of the car in the lane might've had an effect on why I didn't react ( maybe would've seen it in peripheral if it was red or a brighter colour)
@@alexio1942 let that be a lesson. When driving don't look for accidents, look for ways to avoid accidents. This is not a perfect example of how you can get into an accident, it's a perfect example of people not watching where they are driving, was the point I was making. As I said, I watch as a driver and very seldom miss what's happening accident wise.
yeah whilst I can sympathise with the legitimate distraction there's no way I'm not keeping one eye on the road in front me, the cammer in this particular clip doesn't even brake late which is particularly bad.
@@northernsnow6982 Eyes on the road, hands on the sterring wheel, mind on the job is what I was taught when learning to drive a bus, there are no short cuts to safety only an attitude that today I will do my best to compensate for the people who's driving falls below a standard that is safe.
In other words drive defensively, don't take risks and don't try and force a situation in that your error can become a catastrophic problem for someone else and above all else read the road ahead, not just the car in front of you but 4-5 cars ahead to look at what they are doing so you get advance warning of a sudden change in road speed or conditions.
People who run stop signs should have their licences taken off them forever. It's the simplest road rule, it literally says what you need to do.
The fact they knowingly break rules on the road suggests, at least to me, that taking their license away will amount to nought.
I get honked at for actually stopping at the stop sign and looking both ways before moving forward, crazy world we live in lol
@@Sally-nj5wn and it’s bloody frightening when you have to avoid one of these muppets
12:55 Someone posted this clip on Lofts Quarries google reviews and they responded to say the driver has been sacked.
Like they could do anything else... imo he should be banned from driving a HGV for life.
11:31 the way that bus managed to just finely skim across the front of that Merc is oddly satisfying, granted watching any sort of Merc SUV get wrecked is a joy to observe.
Laughed at the same thing, lovely sight.
Half these accidents would be avoided if people's first reaction was applying the brake instead of the horn.
well obviously they see a driver being a bit of a twat so they're fully entitled to be a MUCH bigger twat...just let the carnage ensue...fuck 'em if they get hurt
ikr, they dont even go full brake
exactly like 2:06. how do you not slow down from 40kph
They just want payouts lol
Yea really odd that lots of the cammers in this vid expected the cars cutting them off to just vanish when they honk.
24:51 - "Goodness Me!". sandwiched between "WTF" & "FKN-Hell".... awesome live commentary- the mans a legend.
9:09 sweet bit of petrucci shredding with dream theatre - even timed it to the crash
I was looking for this comment haha. Perfectly timed.
11:24 this is why you don't have miscellaneous stuff sitting in your car like that statue. they can potentially become missiles in a crash and fuck shit up even worse.
I think that's when that lucky charm has expired, bigpapadrew. That statue probably decided "I'm out of here. No more luck for you."
@@gohjohan heheh exactly... time to get a new lucky charm! waving cat? rabbit's foot? four-leaf clover? what will protect us on the road next?! :D
OH MY BUDDHA!!!!
Coroner: “victim died from a blow from a Hello Kitty figurine to the cranium”
21:25 the crash actually fixed the dashcam aim 😅
That second clip is the single greatest clip in the history of this channel! So many people drive like that wanker and that amount of times I've thought of doing that and backed off is the reason why. People like that are only going to learn once they've caused an accident, no amount of driver training will remove arrogance or entitlement. But that will!
He executed a perfect pit manuvre on himself
Like you I back off despite the solid steel roo bar and side rails on my truck, and that’s the single most satisfying clip I’ve seen on this channel, because I have to admit to regularly dreaming of allowing some muppet to pit themselves on that bar work 🤣🤣.

If or when you have enough footage for a full length video.. gotta do a compilation of moments when crashes are timed to the radio. Some of these are gold!
12:18 the poor woman in the car - the one sigh after the two babies start crying in unison just says it all.
Sounded more like one child being recorded by the front and rear dash cams with a slight delay between the two
@@AnotherDoug No, it's definitley 2 babies, otherwise there would be echo with the radio, Besides dash cams will usually only have 1 audio recording

@@24SULLY They were turning, didn't you hear the indicator?
@@tanya5397 yeah I did hear the indicator but I couldn’t figure where the driver was turning too. Into the bush? Or stopping in the middle of a wet road after a corner to pull over ?

As a parent of a child with epilepsy, when I saw the comment 'had a seizure on my way to work' my heart plummeted as I did not want to see what happened next (I did though) and knew how much that person's life would change from this. Not able to drive for a period of time, which means they may have to change jobs or rely on others to chauffer them. I just don't understand the mindset that 'it's not a disability' of some when it can completely control a persons life.
I completely understand that epilepsy deeply affects a person’s life. On the flip side, an epileptic seizure whilst driving could easily end numerous lives.
I am still reliant on someone to drive me around or be close to public transport. My initial seizure was at work (at 23yo). The employer was very understanding. Never let anything or anyone hold your child back if possible.
As a disability support worker.. letting someone drive with epilepsy is more dangerous to others and themselves if there’s a chance that could result in a crash. Whilst I sympathise greatly. What if they killed a support worker with consumers because they choose to drive?
@@kyls73 if you feel held back by your supports then I suggest getting a ndis review of your plan.
@@drew2364 I'm not on the ndis.
This was by far the BEST crash compilation you have uploaded (so far)
16:30 are you serious, who just left their kids out the front of their house next to a busy road? so negligent, and now the person that hit the kid is gonna be traumatised for the rest of their life
Hopefully the driver of the car in front which needlesley stopped and enticed the children into the road when it wasn't safe is feeling guilty too.
@@MeFreeBee it looks like there's another vehicle in front but that moves off. the kids must've seen the traffic stopped in that direction and assumed it was safe to go. they walked between the car in front of the cammer and the car in front of that
@@enzoscarp I think traffic was just incidentally stopped on that side of the road.
@@MeFreeBee You mean he should push the car in front? He had to stop.
During the week, there was a story on the death of a 3 year old child, who, at 6.30pm wandered on to the road and was struck by a car.
I don't know who was supposed to be looking after the child, as in the video you mentioned, and how these kids end up wandering on to the road, but the trauma will affect all concerned for the rest of their lives, surely.
I got teary with the last one because I have epilepsy too and that fear never leaves, even if you haven't had a seizure in years. I hope you're alright and have them under control again
The 10:30 one is interesting. Both drivers would technically be at fault, maybe the 4x4 even more as he full beamed the driver and rear ended the car. I'm guessing that the other driver was either high or drunk to just speed off like that.
Brake checking driver is usually considered to be at fault. That is why he sped off.
21:00 great example of why rubbernecking is so dangerous.
absolutely steel neck instead like batman in dark knight when he gets samuel l hee hee to get him a stronger neck
jokes aside.. when drivinf just continue, you can watch it later on dashcam
(clip for reference)
ua-cam.com/video/Dfg3GLF8VmE/v-deo.html
Actually, the driver was probably looking right checking it was all clear to turn at that moment in time.
2nd clip to the DC driver, i am very very sorry for your front bumper damage, and hope you live long and happy life for providing such satisfying video
Absolute best dash cam channel. Hands down. 100%. Thanks for the consistent uploads.
12:08 the collision set off wave motion in the other guy's giant guts 🤣
That was so satisfying to watch for some reason lol

0:30 van driver was a bit of a knob-head, on the horn. But the self-pit manoeuvre by the black car, wow, well executed.
He was a complete knob-head. He doesn't own the lane. The guy in front had miles of room to merge in... if he's not going fast enough for you... go around... don't tailgate and get on the horn for 10 minutes. Absolute tosspot.
@@crocodile2006 The guy in front didn't have miles of room to merge. What the Golf did would have resulted in failing his License test, even if he didn't brake check or pit himself. If you merging into a lane forces someone to slow down that's a fail, at least it was when i did my P's a few years back, since that's considered an unsafe merge. the Golf was going too slow to merge and either needed to speed up in his lane prior to merging, or wait for the cam car to pass, then merge. and beyond that, the Cam car beeped for 3 seconds before the Golf decided to brake check then pit himself, so really not someone i'd be rooting for anyway.
@@crocodile2006 the van driver did go around him but the VW driver is a complete tool and cut back into the lane and hit the van.
@@crocodile2006 Totally agree. DC driver clearly sped up after he saw them indicate.
@@3c273-r6w an indicator is not a right of way.
2:28 that driver had their hand on the horn for approx 3 seconds before they even started to brake
Blasting the horn expels air which creates a negative pressure which will cause a 0.0000000006% braking effect. :D
But yeah, you're right.
Yeah, he would have received partial responsibility for that.
Love these crashes and love the junkie at 10:40. I aspire to be like that.
@@marcusray2537 Cancelled in Dec 2021. Video says it was recorded in January 2021 - so was still current at the time
He was EXTRA upset. Probly hadn't had enough meth that day.
funny how fast he drove off when he gets out
Good thing the cammer had a bull bar
It's always funny how kiwis say fucken idiot
3:16 why do people keep insisting on turning into 2/3 lanes of traffic like this with a huge blind spot and traffic potentially going at 60km/h plus. it's so fucking risky but i see it all the time?
Agreed. And whilst I appreciate people being courteous to each other, stopping in a roadway to let someone cross when they don’t have proper right of way is a recipe for disaster, as we saw here. I realise it’s a nice thing to do, but often accidents happen because people aren’t following the expected legal road behaviour.
If you do it, sooner or later you will take out a car in the far lane who is undertaking, a lane splitting motorcyclist, or a bike rider. I will never turn right through oncoming traffic coz u are basically guessing on a good outcome.
@@sean---the-other-one at first glance, the middle lane is at least the way it is as a result of the keep clear zone. It's up to the driver driving across 3 lanes of traffic in a 60 zone to give drivers in that lane safe notice they're crossing and avoid messy accidents like this.
A friend of a friend made this mistake in a smaller, older car and I don't even know if they ever recovered physically.
@@MohammedAli-tb7zc the keep clear sign here is only for people coming from the left going straight (from the dash cam pov). There's a no right turn sign there, so people coming from the opposite side like him can't turn right.
@@MohammedAli-tb7zc
I can see the Keep Clear zone, and also the likelihood that the middle and right lanes had been stopped for it. But the cars on the other side were far enough away that at least the car in the right lane was being courteous and letting that right-turning car through before they started travelling in their lane again. The car in the middle lane may have also held back to be courteous, or possibly saw what the car on the right lane was doing and then potentially made a split second decision to also be courteous or realised that if they moved forward they might be collected by the right-turning car.
The right-turning car could also be someone very belligerent who was pushing their way through, forcing the previously stopped cars to wait, but in many of these cases it’s someone who’d prefer to wait who then feels pressured to cross because others are allowing them to do so. We’re social creatures and sometimes that peer pressure will mess around with our rational decision making.
So basically, this, or many situations like it, are caused by people disregarding the road rules in order to be nice, and the end result can be fatal.
The last one resonated with me. Hope the driver is OK. I have epilepsy and was controlled with meds. Started having partial seizures out of the blue. Had my licence suspended around eight years back for medical reasons (with the neurologist) after almost sideswiping a car during a seizure. My teenager was in the car at the time.
4:45 the Toyota ute, can we just appreciate how hard he was on the brakes so a 4th car didn't get wrecked.
That part got me spooked because I travel on that road frequently. If the video date and time was correct, that was exactly 7 days before I was diagnosed with COVID.
4:25 and 19:51 love how the radio stations line up with the crashes on here
Bro I thought they were real people lmao
wtf i literally thought that was them celebrating they caught it on dash cam lol
Hamish and Andy sounded a bit too pleased with that
18:02 could've line up better, though.
"...people make bad choices..." they sure do
21:08 got me good
This was probably one of the crazier videos to the series
20:30 looked like DC drivers fault. But I'd like to go on record as saying too many inept drivers on the road. Our licensing system has failed us
It's obviously the dashcam drivers fault, he couldnt even stick to his lane in the round a bout and made that into a hit and run
Definitely the DC drivers fault, plus hit and run.
World class d-bag!
Dotted lines = give way bitch!!!!
Seems a bit of butt hurting
It was the DC drivers fault.... and he didn't even pull over!!!
the fact they failed to stop is an offence in itself.
The Golf at 0:45 was just a joy to behold...
Still amazes me the amount of people who go for the horn before the brakes.
19:52: "Please switch on your lights". Yeah, I think he has more serious issues to contend with at the moment.
it's an automated thing by the dash cam when it gets dark.
@@TheScarletteWhisper really it's an automated thing? Even with it being an automated thing, as we are all aware, it was the most useless thing to be said after this accident.
The radio was smarter by saying, make your dreams come true, it just didn't realize it was a nightmare. Funny enough in a nightmare, that's what you'd hear after a crash, something completely useless that wouldn't help the situation.
@@northernsnow6982 Yes it sure is! I own a dashcam that does the same. The sound actually comes from the dashcam itself so it doesn't know if you already have your lights on or not, it's just a reminder when it detects darkness.
So when the dashcam fell in the accident, it went dark as it probably fell on the dash ... so in dashcam logic it's like - "oh wow! It's dark outside! Time to remind headlights." 😂 sometimes it tells me when i park in my garage haha. So it was kinda comical to me having it randomly say that because that is navman logic.
@@TheScarletteWhisper really it's an automated thing? Even with it being an automated thing, As We Are All Aware, it was the most useless thing to be said after this accident.
@@TheScarletteWhisper it was a funny comment, and doesn't need your explanation. Your explanation has nothing to do with being funny, like the original post was meant to be.
12:30 Cerato driver was doing them a service by relieving the tension on the 192 rubber chicken toys in the back of the cam car
Ahahahahaha 😂
Every few months I take a break from my otherwise humdrum (I'm retired) life just to watch one of your episodes so that I'm reminded that if you don't stay on your toes, you are going to you'll probably end up with a lot of grief, There's some dead set drop kicks in this lot.
Most of these accidents were caused by drivers either tailgating, being impatient or driving like a complete bell end
You're on the money Pizzle.
And the rest were caused by VW drivers!
Don't forget shard as well. Too many cracked out units behind the wheel these days
5:21 this Mazda driver should be locked up and never allowed to drive again..
I've had this almost happen to me. I was driving down a sigle lane highway and as I was approaching a T section that fillered into the highway a car speeding throw almost hit me going at 100km/h good thing my horn was loud enough to get his attention and that my breaks were good otherwise he would of been a metal sandwich. No one was harmed, but some underpants may need changing.
Cammer @20:19 was fully in the wrong. Dotted line when merging means he/she had to give way. They could only merge when safe to do so, which clearly they didn’t. 😡
One of the best DCOA crash compilations I've seen over the 6 years I've been watching.
If you're looking for your first dash cam, don't neglect a rear camera. That's where half the stupidity is going on. 👍
15:05 This is why its important to wear the proper riding gear. Watching those shoes just fly off to space could have easily dislocated or fractured his ankles. I also dont know the extent of his injuries but even a proper jacket and pants would have aided in protecting him better, even lessening the extent of his injuries.
While the car is at fault, proper training and defensive riding from the rider would have prevented such an accident from occuring. I ride myself and seeing the speed that car was travelling at towards the intersection, i would have waited for them to pass. Unfortunately, even when the light is green, doesn't always mean its safe to go, this is especially true on a motorcycle. Riding more defensively and being very spatially aware helps in seeing drivers like this, who only care for getting from point A to point B as quickly as possible and if that means riding dangerously and putting others at risk for their own benefit, i sure as hell don't want to be getting anywhere near them, as i would come off second best compared to the car. As seen in this clip.
00:45 tbh, served him right there for cutting across like that on purpose and without indicating
what happened there is pretty much what almost everybody has thought about doing but wasn't crazy enough to go through with it 😂😂
oh yeah he was at fault, he was road raging.... trying to block the truck at all costs..
Except that the DC driver needs to be off the road too. All of it was unnecessary.
@@mp4986 oh completely agree, but also something satisfying about seeing someones actions bite them in the ass like that
@@mp4986
DC did the only thing he could do. Nothing he could of done to prevent it even if he breaked or did anything else. The Mazda driver purposely merged into him hoping to cause damage only to end up totaling his own car. And even if DC owner did avoid it, that mazda driver could have done more stupid things in dangering others. Mazda did a stupid move and got a stupid result, karma well served.
Love the ones where if they braked instead of going straight for the horn they would have avoided the crash. Control the car then honk lads.
Love how people think brakes work as instantly as a horn. Skid marks exist for a reason.
@@stephenw2992 sounds like you need to change your undies mate
one of the questions on many insurance claim forms is, "Did you sound your horn to avoid the accident?"
@@philmenzies2477 That's just ... mind-boggling. If you blow your horn at another driver, their behaviour becomes erratic. Sometimes they'll dig their heels in even when they're in the wrong and sometimes they'll panic and cause another accident. There are lots of perfectly legal things you can do to cause a motor vehicle accident. "Sounding your horn to avoid an accident", at any speed above a brisk walking pace, is one of them.
@@TempGuest7 I keep my skid marks on the outside of the vehicle
12:03 A classic example of why you must respect occupancy limits. As can be seen here, the immense mass of the passenger overwhelmed the braking system of the small hatchback
Ha-ha! You beat me to it!
Newtons laws of motion were certainly at play after. Wasn’t sure if human or jelly given the wobble that was going on!
In his defense... looked like chalk on the windscreen there - could've been a test drive from a dodgy car yard resulting in faulty brakes... That said, your point is valid 😉
Teaching me how to drive, my dad told me some key points
1. defensive driving is key: you can almost always predict idiots, even if you have right of way, doesn't mean others will respect that. Better to be safe, than to be in the right sometimes.
2. Merging isn't just merging in front of a car, it's also merging behind one.
3. If a car is tailgating you, don't brake check it, you can simply lay off the accelerator, similar effect, less danger.
4. Stay away from trucks, you can be doing the right thing and things can still go wrong.
5. Every idiot that speeds past you, you'll see again at the next set of lights.
edit: feel like I should say that my dad is a country boy who's written off 3 cars by being an idiot
God hits in this compilation were BAD. I can feel the whiplash through the video 😬
Hope the rider at 15:10 was good
Possible hip fracture but it looks like dislocated hip based on the pain response visible in the way the rider moves when trying to get up. It's extremely painful and a dangerous injury fraught with risk for medical complications. I hope someone had the presence of mind to call an ambulance. Time is no-one's friend when it comes to injuries like that.
This why it’s so important to wear all the gear. All the time
2:20 is totally on the Police. They showed no caution entering that intersection especially since they were creating the danger by going through the red light.
@@OhSoddit was about to say the same. Police would of charged them big time for doing nothing wrong
The fact that the lights & siren of the cop were going might counteract any liability as well as the traffic light was yellow when the car entered the intersection
legally they had lights and sirens besides the other driver ran through an amber light and had more than enough time to stop at the lights
@@FallingOranges I was a paramedic and you are the agent creating the danger. The police went through the red light without slowing down at all. It's their responsibility to make sure it is safe; you can't assume everyone hears the siren or sees the light. Hence why you proceed with caution
Amber means STOP. The driver which hit the cop ran the light.
12:08 this guy's body reacts like a waterbed!
Regular person crashes “what a f*ckin tw*t”
P plater crashes “OF COURSE IT’S A P PLATER!!”
Yeah cause P players are just shit drivers but they think they're the best
Every Learner should watch 2 hours of this with surround sound and a vibrating chair before getting their P's.
It still wouldn't be enough. So many people nowadays have a crippling addiction to their phones.
16:35 gotta be one of the scariest cams I've seen
I noticed that on the rural roads in Australia when there is a turn off there is no road marking to indicate it. In RSA at virtually all crossings or junctions there will be solid lines painted making it illegal to overtake in that spot. In this video I saw quite a few accidents happen at turn offs where drivers were overtaking the vehicle turning off. A solid line might be a good idea for Australia as well.
The solid line-markings are often there, but too many drivers are in the habit of ignoring them!
What I particularly hate is impatient drivers who are in so much of a hurry that they turn quiet suburban streets into 'rat-runs', speeding, tailgating, & rather than slow down for turning vehicles in front of them, they'll pull out & pass or undertake dangerously!
Looking at their phones mostly see it all day especially rear enders.
@@stevie-ray2020 Come visit South Africa and drive for a week in Cape Town or Johannesburg. You will appreciate how law abiding Australians are.;)
@@briankinnear9975 Do limit people from being distracted. Solution: Higher speed limits on rural roads improves driver consent ration and reduce accidents, but that does not fall into the category of making money from hidden speed cams.
@@JJSmith1100 It may reduce the frequency of accidents, but at higher speeds the injuries and deaths are worse. That is why Vision Zero programmes (aiming for zero deaths or serious injuries) generally set up systems to reduce speeds. But that isn't by speed limit signs but road design that makes drivers more cautious in hazardous areas.
Holy shit, that cry at 12:27 hurt my heart :( Poor little tackers
very sad. but the driver didn't need to come to a complete stop, just enough to drive around the objects
Why would you come to a complete stop on a one lane high speed road that’s in a bend.
I feel sorry for those kids. With such a moronic mother, I'm sure they'll be put in danger plenty more times.
@@bigtomDW Some people don't think.
But in the rain you are supposed to keep a safer distance therefore the driver behind should have seen him slowing down and slowed down himself
Man I hope the bike rider at 15:08 is ok. Sure looked like he was in a world of hurt😔
yeah.. definitely a groin injury too.. his left leg took all the impact as the bike flung towards the left. his boots went flying.
Oh man I was feeling that watching! Ouch.
Yeah and the kid that got merked by the car didn't look too good either
7:36 That must be why they started playing ads warning about tram stopping ability on the radio stations only in the last couple of weeks.
You know a tram has had to brake heavily since it's last maintenence when it goes, dadunk, dadunk as it rolls past!
@@Mercurio-Morat-Goes-Bughunting Trains and trams go dadunk when they drive over the expansion joints in the rails.
Not because the wheel is flat spotted.
@@IIGrayfoxII Yes, I think also when the wheel is flat spotted, not only over joints.
@@Mercurio-Morat-Goes-Bughunting Flat spotted wheels would cause problems with braking and ride
Plus trains have anti skid systems
@@IIGrayfoxII We're talking about trams, not trains and I know someone who brought one to a quick halt. It skidded and it did the dadunk dadunk thing along a section of track with no joins. That's how it became a bit of a family joke :) Moreover, I've spent enough time on trams to know when the sound has something to do with joins and track defects (consistent relative to location) and when the sound is due to a defect in the wheel (occurs irrespective of location).
The seizure at the end is pretty scary. I don't have such a neurological condition (AFAIK) but I'm terrified about my implanted defibrillator going off and making me black out for 15+ seconds. I'm required under Queensland law to get regular check-ups with my GP to keep my license but it's still a major concern.
19:00 - Easily avoidable, was too stubborn to slow or swerve.
How are you supposed to get out of a driveway like that? Asking cause I'm new to driving. Are you supposed to just creep out real slow until you know you have been visible for long enough that anyone coming would stop, and then send it? Seems really dangerous.
20:33 cammer is at fault
The 2nd driver that put the brake checker straight into the wall is my spirit animal. I'm glad somebody finally did it 😂
I'm shocked and amazed at the volume and severity of clips. Its crazy. I get in Australia there are more dash cams than most places, but regardless. There doesn't seem to be a slow down in spectacular crashes or stupidity.
10:37 Sounds like Maddog has moved from Perth to Melbourne and upgraded from his bicycle to a car.
Ha ha I remember maddog at the Perth train station back in the 80s 😂
You must be talking bout Mad Adrian right? He lived right around the corner from me when I was a kid in the 80s and I was terrified of him. He sure did get around on that racer though.
19:46 Why is it that some feel the need to always be 1 car ahead. You're going to be slower now and its going to cost you a lot more.
2:28 I hope the DC driver is also at fault for this one.
1. Speeding
2. Driving in the right lane without a valid reason.
3. Makes absolutely no attempt to avoid the crash. Doesn't brake until the last second, just leans on the horn.
yeah nah
1. prove speeding. @km/h over?
2. He literally caught up to the vehicles in the left lane, and was in position to overtake. That's a valid reason for being in the right lane in case you've forgotten
3. So dropping down to 50km/h under heavy brakes means he made no attempt to stop? That's nice. Do you have any other fairy tales?
2:10 needs to learn the difference between the horn and his brakes.
I know right!....hits his horn but proceeds to drive straight into them. Muppet.
Beep, brake, same difference.
A lot of the accidents in this video could have been avoided if they were as fast on the brakes as they were on the horn.
They even had the space to turn away from it. Of the two close encounters I've had where somebody else was at fault and almost hit me, neither time did I use my horn. Not even afterwards because there was no point. There's no time or brain space for it. It's the wrong reaction to have when immediate action needs to be taken.
@@wadeh7254 Look at his dash cam speedo. He actually accelerates towards the other car.
Oh shit I know that dude from 1:00 on the motorbike. Messed his face up a bit with some bruising and stitches but hey, could have been worse.
Was he wearing a half helmet? It's a bit hard to see.
Lol
Very unfortunate for your friend. But he needs to start wearing full gear. All the gear, all the time. Full face helmet, armoured jacket, armoured pants and gloves.
So does good old squiddy now actually put some gear on?
@@BW_Drums no. Just buy a car and dont be a peasant
16:24 I don't know what state this is but why is the car turning right from the left lane in the first place?
18:00 "we're gonna die young" welp
